***************************************************************************** NOTE: This is pretty close to the version on the album, but I took the liberty of making a few minor changes. In other words, this is not exactly as played by Chris Cornell, but my interpretation of the song! This is such a fantastic tune, and one of my personal favorites from Higher Truth. Hope you like my transcription! Enjoy;) ***************************************************************************** Artist: Chris Cornell Song: Bend In The Road Album: Higher Truth Transcribed by: Ole Jonny Pedersen ([email protected]) Date: Thursday, November 12, 2015 G Em C G Put a bend in the road I’m too lost and tired Em C D To see where I’m going, what I left behind Em Bm G7 G C And I’m moving so slow, don’t know when I’ll arrive Em G C D G So put a bend in the road, I’m growing tired of straight lines Em C D G G Em C G I set off for the shore, that was farthest away Em C D From the ones I adored, in the place I was raised Em Bm G7 G C And I roam down the road just to watch it go by Em G C D G And when nowhere is love, maybe nowhere am I Am G Am G Everyone needs a touch, or a shoulder for crying Em A7 C D They say love is a crutch, I say love is blind G Em C G And that’s all that she needed, that I could not supply Em C D G With a bend in the road, put it out of my mind Solo G Em C G Yeah! G Em C D G Am G Am G Met a strange little girl, who was everything I Em A7 C D ever dreamed I could love or be loved by G Em C G So put a bridge, or a hill, or a forest of pines Em C D Or a river of blue I can run alongside Em Bm G7 C And I’ll sleep when it’s night, I'll follow all the signs Em G C D Em A7 Just put a bend in the road, I’m growing tired of straight lines C G C D (stop strumming) G Put a bend in the road, I’m growing tired of straight lines __________________ Chord Definitions __________________ G 320033 Em 022000 C 032010 D 000232 Bm 224432 G7 320001 Am 002210 A7 002020 __________________
